Description

Red Dot TrailAre you looking for a challenging yet rewarding hike? Then join Paul Arendt as he leads this exciting hike down the Power Line Trail into lower Ancho Canyon and then on to Ancho Rapids. From there the hike will proceed upriver to the Red Dot Trail. Along the way the group will examine several petroglyphs and a few old rock formations/pens. The total distance that will be covered is 8 + miles, with an elevation gain/loss of ~ 1,200 ft. It is estimated that the hike will last 5-6 hours. A limited amount of bush whacking over uneven terrain will be required.

The level of this hike is moderate to difficult. Participants will be limited to 15 adults, and advance registration is required. Meeting location details will be provided upon registration.

Leather hiking shoes are recommended. Be sure to bring a lunch and plenty of water.

NOTE:  The hike leader has the right to refuse participation to anyone he or she feels is not fully prepared for the hike.  

Please note that we will ask you for an emergency contact number.  If the hike says "full" you may be put on the waiting list.  We will let you know if anyone cancels.  If you're signed up and can't make it, please let us know so that someone else can take your place.
